Dossena confident of attacking Liverpool this season

Andrea Dossena is confident of an attacking game being employed by new Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez.

"I am not a fan of catenaccio, it's not for me," new fullback signing Dossena told LFC Magazine. "I don't like it when teams just try to pass the ball around to waste time.

"If you concede a goal in the last minute of a game, it could be that all your efforts have been wasted. I don't really like the talk about Italian football being all about the defence and attacking on the break.

"Of course, I see myself as a defender but I like to be flexible too. If there is a chance to attack I am very happy to go forward. I am not the type of player who is happy to settle for a 1-0 win.

"I believe in always playing to win and trying to score more goals."
